The performance figures represent past performance of the fund. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Fund performance figures shown are calculated after fund management fees and expenses, and assume reinvestment of distributions. Unless otherwise stated, performance figures are in Australian dollars and performance for periods greater than one year is annualised. Performance is calculated to the last business day of the month. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's units, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. An iShares ETF is not actively managed. You cannot invest directly in an index. The Fund's benchmark is calculated gross of withholding tax prior to the restructure and net of withholding tax after the restructure. See Additional Information note 3.

SUSTAINABILITY CHARACTERISTICS

Sustainability Characteristics can help investors integrate non-financial, sustainability considerations into their investment process. These metrics enable investors to evaluate funds based on their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks and opportunities. This analysis can provide insight into the effective management and long-term financial prospects of a fund.

The metrics below have been provided for transparency and informational purposes only. The existence of an ESG rating is not indicative of how or whether ESG factors will be integrated into a fund. The metrics are based on MSCI ESG Fund Ratings and, unless otherwise stated in fund documentation and included within a fund's investment objective, do not change a fund's investment objective or constrain the fund's investable universe, and there is no indication that an ESG or Impact focused investment strategy or exclusionary screens will be adopted by a fund. For more information regarding a fund's investment strategy, please see the fund's prospectus.

All data is from MSCI ESG Fund Ratings as of 07-Jan-2022, based on holdings as of 30-Nov-2021. As such, the fund's sustainable characteristics may differ from MSCI ESG Fund Ratings from time to time.

To be included in MSCI ESG Fund Ratings, 65% of the fund's gross weight must come from securities covered by MSCI ESG Research (certain cash positions and other asset types deemed not relevant for ESG analysis by MSCI are removed prior to calculating a fund's gross weight; the absolute values of short positions are included but treated as uncovered), the fund's holdings date must be less than one year old, and the fund must have at least ten securities. For newly launched funds, sustainability characteristics are typically available 6 months after launch.

ESG GLOSSARY:

MSCI ESG Fund Rating (AAA-CCC): The MSCI ESG Rating is calculated as a direct mapping of ESG Quality Scores to letter rating categories (e.g. AAA = 8.6-10). The ESG Ratings range from leader (AAA, AA), average (A, BBB, BB) to laggard (B, CCC). MSCI ESG Quality Score - Peer Percentile: The fund's ESG Percentile compared to its Lipper peer group. Fund Lipper Global Classification: The fund peer group as defined by the Lipper Global Classification. Funds in Peer Group: The number of funds from the relevant Lipper Global Classification peer group that are also in ESG coverage. MSCI ESG Quality Score (0-10): The MSCI ESG Quality Score (0 - 10) for funds is calculated using the weighted average of the ESG scores of fund holdings. The Score also considers ESG Rating trend of holdings and the fund exposure to holdings in the laggard category. MSCI rates underlying holdings according to their exposure to industry specific ESG risks and their ability to manage those risks relative to peers. MSCI ESG % Coverage: Percentage of a fund's holdings that have MSCI ESG ratings data. MSCI Weighted Average Carbon Intensity (Tons CO2E/$M SALES): Measures a fund's exposure to carbon intensive companies. This figure represents the estimated greenhouse gas emissions per $1 million in sales across the fund's holdings. This allows for comparisons between funds of different sizes.
